Ooo I grew up with that same view (well, a bit back from there). Never get tired of it.

I'm feeling better than I did but still wheezy and pale and pathetic 😁

For some reason that looks really... spidery

Oh I wouldn't like the body blanket pile. What happens in the middle of the night right if you open your eyes and there's a white face peering over the side of the top bunk? I've always had bunk bed anxiety. Merry Christmas

You see that glass balustrade thing behind the sad knee high Xmas tree? Well the kitchen is right below so I'm lying in bed listening to my 83 year old dad eating a late night mince pie and whistling onward Christian soldiers #winningatlife

Ok because I've had the flu from hell and can't stop coughing I've been banished to the study. Next to the clothes dryer of doom plus light with no shade, two cheese strings and a box of trazadone. Oh and there's a sad knee high unlit Xmas tree next to the ubiquitous printer #duvetknowitschristmas

That's great to hear - I really struggle with well-being/self care and tend to just react to everything that happens. Being in the moment is something I very rarely achieve - good to see another farmer managing it

Edwin the rescue crow. I can't get close enough to see the problem but he seems very thin

Oh dear I'm now the owner of a rescue crow. I found him bedraggled and dragging a wing. We're snowed in otherwise id take him to a vet. He's in my sunroom eating cat food and lavishly pooing on my clean washing. Cinders the Magnificent is FASCINATED

Because the farm has been in our family for four generations. I know every inch of it, the wildlife and adore living here.

We didn't vote for Brexit. And we're a small family farm which will be hammered by the tax. Just because the land has a monetary value doesn't mean that it's in our bank accounts. My kids are on free school meals 🀷

Such a good book - absolutely perfect for reading on a winter afternoon. I was walking in the woods on our farm today hoping I didn't meet Owd Hob 😬

So glad to find you on here - I need my regular fix of Tudor history!

These two at the moment - I've always loved @levgrossman.bsky.social after his Magicians series - such a good writer. And I've just finished Withered Hill by @davidbarnettuk.bsky.social - great folk horror - read it in a day!
